She always bends. 

When her reality changes for the worse, so does she. Because it's only when the slope steepens does she find her footing. It's when the light dims and fades. 

In the stifling November air of the city, her  head lifts to the night sky. Specks of snow flicker yellow as they hang in the dingy streetlight glare. 

Her hair flits black daggers in the wind. With eyes glazing and her high on the brink, the shadow approaching doesn't go unnoticed. 

He's a dark flash.

Evan looks again to the sky, the frame filled with blackness and snowflake, his hands, his face, and all the red.

don't hesitate to comment where you deem necessary. The good, the bad, and the hideously distorted. (say those last two words aloud for mouth feels) 

*A FrightFest Winner*
Host reviews below:

FINN H. ARLETT:  Penchant is a sensory rollercoaster with no dark theme left untold. A focused, character-driven story of unspeakable horrors, rated M for a reason! The twists and turns in this story will leave you with a neck injury. My advice: Trust no-one!

GAVIN HETHERINGTON:  It's always refreshing for an author to give so much attention to detail (my favourite part of reading horror) as to work my senses to transport me into a very intense world. Desolate and wholly mesmerizing.

    *Intended for mature audiences. There will be warranted language at times. Some scenes will be considered violent and graphic, think visceral gore. Some scenes may evolve into intense situations, think vehement passion.*

The Hound

65 parts Complete

Antique store owner Liz brings home a Victorian taxidermy hound from auction, unwittingly unleashing dark forces on her wife and son. ***** Nat Loman has finally married the love of her life, Liz, and is getting used to her role as stepmother to Liz's 5-year-old son, Liam. The Loman family runs a bustling antique business so they attend a sale where a striking, black taxidermied hound is up for auction. Liz picks it up for the business, but it ends up being stored in their home, where Nat notices strange things occurring. She quickly discovers the past residents had died violently. Then she hears from a friend about the myth of "the devil's dog", a hound that perches in the shadows, tearing families apart from the inside. Soon, people around the Lomans are dying, and Liz is changing, darkening. It's up to Nat to save the woman she loves from the darkness closing in, and to save Liam from danger no matter what she has to sacrifice.
